| cientists are planning to use the largest supercomputers to simulate life on Earth, including the financial system, economies and whole societies. The project is called "Living Earth Simulator" and part of a huge EU research initiative named FuturIcT.

For example, ETH Zurich's professor for transport engineering Kay Axhausen is simulating the travel activities of all 7.5 Million inhabitants of Switzerland to forecast and mitigate traffic congestion. Other researchers at the ETH -- all working within its Competence Center for Coping... |

| Wednesday, February 10, 2010 The NFL Violates Children I havent said much over the years as the NFL has been bowing at the alter of political correctness. In recent years they have become known as the No Fun League as they systematically altered the game with ridiculous rules such as those banning silly end zone dances many of us have come to love.

They claim to have made this ridiculous ban on end zone celebrations because it is supposedly a bad example for the children ... |

| Off the bat, lets get a few things straight: 1) New Orleans is a one-of -a-kind city. It should be on everyones list to visit at least once. 2) The Saints played a great game, setting off a massive party in the nations greatest party city. 3) Despite the fact that the Colts will always be Baltimore to me, I rooted for Indianapolis in the Super Bowl.

This is Audi saying, ÂLook, if you eco-hippies want everything to be environmentally-friendly, here you go. Clean Diesel. But weÂre gonna make fun of you and weÂre gonna continue to sell R8 V-10s forever. |

| The Tamar gas field, 50 miles off the Haifa coast, keeps getting bigger with every report, and the gas discovery now is estimated to be the worlds largest in 18 months. The Scotland-based Wood Mackenzie research and consulting firm assessed the value of the field at $8 billion, approximately double that of local analysts. The latest upside projection comes less than two weeks after another revised estimate that the reserves are 16 percent higher than previously thought. Changing gas prices could make the gas worth anywhere between $3.5-$17 billion in the future, and partners in the offshore project are preparing... |
